Video Analytics Role in Infrastructure Security
Video Analytics is the emerging technology where automation is used to filter, analyze and manage real-time CCTV video for security and intelligent traffic monitoring. Video Analytics technology is used to analyze video for specific data, behavior, objects or attitude. This technology evaluates real-time captured video to determine specific information surrounding isolated incidents.
Credible intelligence is added to the monitoring system(s), no longer relying on an incomplete picture leading to false alarms, breaches and misused resources. A wide range of safety and security applications are available that will satisfy individual client objectives.
Objectives
The loss of critical infrastructure has serious impact on the flow of commerce and public safety. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) considers protecting and improving key Infrastructure critical to National Security and the functioning of government and business alike. Video Analytics proactive management camera systems and analytic software monitors activities in and around facilities multiplying the watchful eyes in the mission of public safety and health.
Benefits
Video Analytic software compliments existing CCTV capabilities by providing proactive analysis of video recordings. Improves traditional traffic center operations by enabling staff to keep pace with demands to increase the perimeter of coverage and increase the numbers and types of incidents requiring management. Video Analytic alarms include visual of the area under concern, which reduces false alarms, and provides monitoring staff the ability to dispatch the appropriate First Responders by empowering staff with additional incident intelligence. Video Analytics also enables the assessment of infrastructure upgrade requirements and the preparation of budgets.
Capabilities
Video Analytics proactive Incident Response Management offers unique capabilities that address the extremely difficult endeavor of safeguarding bridges, tunnels, parking garages, campuses, power facilities, and other critical infrastructures against terrorist or criminal activities. Vital proactive monitoring, correlating and sorting of high volumes of stored data minimizes operating budgets. Automated vehicle disabled/parked alerts, detection of pedestrians on bridges and roadways, perimeter intrusion and restricted areas are just a few examples of real-time Video Analytics infrastructure security applications.
